CNV VCF File

ACLI produces one CNV variant call file (VCF) (*.cnv.vcf) per sample to report the CN status on the gene and sub gene level, along with the CN events for PGx targets.

The CNV VCF output file follows the standard VCF format. The QUAL field in the VCF file measures the CNV call quality. The CNV call qualityis capped at 60 and the minimal value is 0. CNV calls. Low quality calls (QUAL<7) are flagged by the Q7 filter. Low quality samples are flagged with the SampleQuality flag. Low quality samples have noise greater than a threshold. Noise is measured by the standard deviation of qualified probes.

The CNV VCF output file includes the following content.
